New version of Symnian brings new bugs while it fixes some old ones. E66 was good example. Gallery wasn't working, firmware was updated. After that, WLAN started work weirdly. Even if it was turned off, it sucked battery empty, if there was WLAN AP near the phone. Just one example. Nokia support is nothing to write home.
I use Nokia phones only at work, because that's what our company buys. Phones I spend my own money is never going to be Nokia. I use rugged Motorolas and have used lot of Samsung, they are both great!

People easily fell in love with screen resolutions.
Its true that Galaxy and Wave's resolutions are better than Nokia but no one can argue with Sybmian's reliability and Nokia's support for their phones.
What if you just got the eyes but not the brain???

Nokia should had release this phone before Iphone 4 release, is a bit of mistake they release so late, $550 is not a bad price for this good unlock phone but consider most people rather buy carrier one (data plan) to save money then go spend 2-3 times for a unlock phone.

I wish I would buy this one. But little bit pricy for me! I'm going to buy Nokia 5230 (just 7.4K INR) this month and wait for N801 OR will buy N8 this year end.
Did any one knows that the GPS navigation costs over 10K in India! But its free with this phone (in 5230 also, 5230 package has car kit too!)
Nokia is not trying to make some existing smartphones, but its trying to make mini computers.
It started with N900, now N8 with HDMI out, it can easily replace your Home Theater, and your netbook / notebook.
Imagine that having N8 connected with 20" screen, bluetooth keyboard, mouse. I could connect with my office vpn (Symbian has the best vpn software).

The phone is more than powerful enough for the improved memory handling, virtual memory.
680Mhz is more than enough to multitask & access applications quick enough.
You really are letting your upsets & woes of nokia's past & older troubles in that os get to you.
This is fresh, revamped. Better memory management than S60, better memory management than S60, better multi tasking, better gpu based Ui.
N8 has faster cpu than older S60 devices, twice the ram over older S60 devices.
It has all the built in technology you need. S^4 will bring the major ui overhauls. But come on, a more effcient os architecture than ever than S60 & faster cpu, more mem.
This phone is decent enough, the hardware is powerful enough. I just don't get peoples arguments over something older than what we have here.
Nokia have listened to customers, kernel is newer, more efficient than ever. This will be the best symbian bar none.
It will take away the issues with virtual memory that we had with crashing freezing memory full on S60.
Come on. It's just all revamped os. It will ve better, be positive about it for yourselfs health, nokia's & everyone elses. I'm currently happy still on my 5800. I'll be happy with this till the transformation of linux Megoo releases onto a handset.
